Hello What’s Good at Trader Joe’s 2015:
“Well, they’re decent. I wouldn’t say great. But not bad. The real highlight of these cupcakes is the frosting and filling – I mean, go figure, right? On top there’s a thick double layer of fudgy chocolate, with a little squirt of coconut cream, topped off with a chocolate covered almond. Imagine crossbreeding a Mounds bar with an Almond Joy, and that’s pretty close to what we got going on here. Thick, rich, sugary and delicious. Texturally there wasn’t too much of the typical coconut feel – indeed, pretty creamy.
Similar in taste but not consistency with the stuff on the summit, it’s a good little touch, albeit a little ho-hum. I don’t think that’s the filling’s fault, but rather the actual cake part. The cake itself is an average chocolate example at best – I think I’ve made better from a box mix. It’s just kinda dull and dry and it mutes most bites instead of framing and balancing well.”
